Reviews
"Terrible parking, had to drive all over the place to find parking. When I eventually found it I had to walk across the city in a downpour to see my daughter's Christmas show."
"Went here for grandaughter's dance recital. Nice venue for this type of event but parking is an issue. Lucky that street psrking is free on Sundays. Still had to park quite a ways awsy from this venue."
"We have been to two events there; a movie and the Nutcracker. The parking is easy even though it is in downtown Providence. The facility is so clean and well cared for."
"Came here with my wife on a Friday night to see a concert. It's not a huge auditorium, with a capacity of about 750 people, but what it lacks in size, it gains in intimacy, since no seat is terribly far from the stage. Acoustics are decent, at least to my untrained ear. Seats were comfortable, and there were no view obstructions. Bathrooms were located in front of the building, along with a concession stand (patrons cannot bring outside food or drink in). There is an area in front, before the entrance to the auditorium, where vendors can sell merchandise. It's not really a fancy atmosphere (indeed, it reminded me of a high school auditorium), and is not super-modern. However, it is well maintained, clean and comfortable. Perhaps its best attribute is its location, right on the edge of downtown Providence, and next to I-95. There is a parking lot adjacent to the building (although I couldn't find the signs for it), but, I was really stoked that I was able to park on-street, right in front of the auditorium. Be aware that there are no parking meters. Instead, there is a (not-so-visible sign) instructing you to download an app to your smart phone, and follow the app's instructions to pay for your parking. Although I am averse to tech, I was still able to complete the process without major frustration, and parking was only a little over $2 - way cheaper than going to a parking garage."
"Great venue for a dance recital. There are no bad seats here. Really appreciated that as ours were in the back and we could still see everything."
